    I don't think you are a bad teacher I think you lack understanding and compassion towards special needs children...you are really not asking for help you are degrading this child....no where have I read that you have any plans for dealing with this child...no where have I read that you have conferred with your principal and he/she recommends______...no where have I read that I had a team meeting about this child and we don't know what to do....you have a lot of resources at your school/district....which ones have you tried to use?
    I have read that you have no free time, that you are afraid of this child, that you are pregnant and have no assistance that's reality for a lot of us.

    Now I would suggest that you make yourself a plan of action for when this child turns agressive again which I'm sure he will. Teach your class how to evacuate to a safe place when the agression begins....and please don't do this when the "retard" is in the room. Talk to a neighboring teacher and ask for their help in this type of situation.

    and I don't care what other teachers have posted I am offended by your use of retard....it is not used in my state routinely or to get government funding and if this was your child you would be offended by a teacher using towrds your child. Think about it...
